Impulse: An impelling force; driving onward or inducing motion.

... Arizona>Mexico >Seattle>Madrid. that's three impulses,landing this poor artist, in THIS weird and beautiful land . i aint regretin' it. was a good move... eventually. Have learned and seen much... Proving, impulse, is the beginning of all things great and small.... and if they blow up...for the least, we have created impulse.menos mal. 8 years and 216 days later... i'm with the girl, i am loved. The impulse worked true to its definition... all good....Next problem...

...the elevator in the building is like a time machine, and theres always a smokey vision of who you will be when the doors open out onto the public floor... today i was Level, cheif of the supream court, and i declared peace in España. Everybody went home and put on their best clothes, washed the dog and went to the palza de la constituion, where there was beer and big ham sandwiches...and not a politicion to be seen. Oh, i outlawed them too, did i say that? a fine time was had by all , execpt for little tommy whom wanted to be a politician when he grew up... he cryed but a minute, and then forgot all about it and was seen dancing happily, and when asked why he said he did'nt know. happy is the kid whom dances for no reason he can explain. And the day ended, kids and dogs collected, the leftovers sent to Madrid, and all was right with the world... it good to be the cheif of the supream court...No?

Be well todo mundo. Change something that desperately needs changing today.

...have painted everything, and have found yet another strange soul from that past floatin' in this our new digital world. brothers been around, and found his place ...havent we all. Sunday spent stayin dry and smokin' and readin of this world fallin apart... but here, my friends, in uvieu... nothing ever happens. We live in a mall, the girl and i. So clean, so, fashionable... An open air mall. I long for a little filth. some broken beer bottles or a doorless refrigator sittin out there in the plaza de la Fontan... some cigarette butts, at the least. Nope, not one.
...Sunday, and the mistory of the missing chunk is solved. found in the most unlikely of places... but found . we are with chunks... god is good. its Monday... Coffee, cigarettes, my lawyer Carlos, whom looks like Mcartney " LeT iT bE " , Picassos on the tv news again, bulls and bullfighters... Picasso. not breathin' and still gettin' paid..., we should all be so talented , more coffee, and hey Marco !!! the bacon IS workin'...Thanks...

... And then theres you there Jamie Hayes... i do hope life has treated you well over these odd and surreal years.
there are very few left from that old crew. you were the most man. I have missed and spoken of you... you know where i'm livin' and heres a number for you and all , 034.636 54 68 25, i'm good, despite the words, and adventures and traps trippped, i'm good. I will wait for you to show up here, at the mall...

And thats another Monday in Uvieu, and another day in España...8 yrs and 198 days. thats real time Friends...

Be well todo mundo...smoke somthing worthy of comment today, it's monday.

"...Do you have a plan B ? of course you do..."
" ....No. "
" ...and this? how do you remain in such bizzar situations, all mind warpin' and soul drainin' without
a plan B ? "
" ... I trust. "
" ... you trust ? "
" ... I've little choice..."
" ... And you've played with the fire, the lawyers and judges all of whom are drenched to the skin with
the weird and dark histories of the Moors, Dali and El Cid **...What makes you think you'll come out any
cleaner ? Hummmm..."
" ...i close my eyes and climb the ramp to the waitin' plane and somewhere over somewhere it will open its
doors and deposit this poor artist into a scene based on things solid.... and barring firm ground, peace,
and something resembling life...i will surely be taught to fly..."
" ...You are a strange person "
" ...So I've been told..."
" ... Another glass of wine Jess ? "

very little responce to the new peices, " Beside the freeway with Don Quijote no.2 " and " Manoline, in another moment of contemplation, 18 may 1998 " that they have'nt gone up on the walls yet, " i can't believe i've so much storage space..."
there is good news though, they sold a lot of paintings in sothbeys yesterday, 21,000 €... a lot of paintings by a monkey. dali was a fan, picasso, and ernest hemmingway. Monkey paintings, and a dead monkey at that. huh... if the brothers at sothbyes are so hard up as to have to drag out the monkey paintings ... hell boys, i've a whole shitload of paintings stored all over the country... gimme a call... 034 636 54 68 25... another saturday in the barrio, and another day in this weird and beautiful land....

today i took off my glasses at the insistance of a bum in the park, I was ready to destroy this poor brother... the state is winning today. the girl is mad and this dry summer day aint nothing like the dry summer day a year ago... i could be alittle calmer, so i could. i know. i'm a brother on hold. a pawn of the state, whom has this weird plan for me... but they aint sayin' what nor when nor how nor.... the life of am inmigrant... not the easiest thing i've ever tried, so it aint'.
I'll be fine. i'm loved and protected, and for the moment this will do. but, lemme tell you, ( the state) i'm watchin' what these locals are takin for granted, and it's pissin' me off.... but they know that, their THE STATE. thinkin' of california, where everyday is new and without all the heavy history... your probably right Marco, your probably right...

be well todo mundo. manaña mas y mejor...
